  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

So I had this awesome connection last night with a woman of God. It was so real and it was like we already knew each other as we talked. This woman is likes me like crazy and after talking with her I felt the same way. Anyway so many connections emotionally, spiritually, and mentally and I only did this dating online thang cuz I felt the Lord leading me that way, but she has 2 kids and is divorced. Should I pursue this and see what happends? The kids I don't mind well kinda, and the divorce thang kind of bothers me but at the same time it was like God had already prepared me for dealing with that reality while looking for a soulmate. any tips hints or suggestions?

I would hold judgment for now.

Keep talking to her and getting to know her. When the time is appropriate, talk to her about the details of the divorce. For all you know, her husband may have been abusive or cheated on her, thus lifting the vows she made to him.

Also, make sure you are ready to become a father if you do end up marrying this woman. Those two kids will be your kids, to love, cherish, discipline and support. So make sure you are prepared for that.

I'm a divorced and remarried woman. I can tell you now that if my husband hadn't been 100% into dating me (ie: If he was only 99% and 1% of him "wasn't sure because I was divorced"), I wouldn't have wanted either of us to bother with the relationship. I have no time in my life for people who "aren't sure" because they don't like my past. And you should have no time in your life for people who don't meet whatever standards you've set for your so-called soulmate.

So don't waste each other's time, and move on.

My pastor once told me this "Before you get married watch her with your eyes open and when you get married watch her with your eyes squinted." This mean before you get married question about her, get to know her. Then when you get married you squint your eyes because those things dont matter that much.
